西底家王打發了人去帶他出來；王在自己宮中私下問他說：『從永恆主那裏來了甚麼話語沒有？』耶利米說：『有。』他又說：『你必被交於巴比倫王手中。』

摩西、亞倫就臉伏於地說：『上帝啊，萬人之靈的上帝啊，一個人犯罪、你就要惱怒全會眾麼？』

這人夜裏來見耶穌，對他說：『老師，我們知道你是從上帝那裏來做教師的；因為一個人、若不是上帝與他同在，就不能行你所行的這些神迹。』

『願永恆主萬人之靈的上帝立一個人來治理會眾，

瑪坦的兒子示法提雅、巴施戶珥的兒子基大利、示利米雅的兒子猶甲、瑪基雅的兒子巴示戶珥、聽見耶利米對眾民所說的話，說：『永恆主這麼說：住在這城裏的、必因刀劍、饑荒、瘟疫而死；但出去歸降迦勒底人的、必得活着；必掠得自己的性命而活着。永恆主這麼說：這城一定會交在巴比倫王的軍隊手中，使他攻取它。』於是首領們對王說：『這個人該受處死；因為他向這城裏剩下的軍兵和眾民說了這樣的話，是叫軍兵的手和眾民的手都軟下來；因為這個人不是謀求這人民得平安，只是謀求他們受災禍罷了。西底家王說：『看哪，他在你們手中；無論怎樣王都不會干涉你們。』他們就拿住耶利米，給扔在王子瑪基雅的井裏；那井在護衛監的院子裏；他們用繩子將耶利米縋下去。井裏沒有水，只是淤泥；耶利米就沉陷在淤泥中。
